Work requirements set forth are all in accordance with (IAW) the terms, conditions, and provisions herein. Descriptions of the services to be furnished can be found in the Item Requirements and Specifications, found in Section J, Attachment 2. See Section I, AMS Clause 3.2.4-16 "ORDERING" for ordering procedures.

This is an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (ID/IQ), Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract. Other than the minimum obligation under this contract, the precise quantities and delivery supply units are unknown and will be ordered as needed with the issuance of delivery orders.

Estimated requirements are not a representation to an offeror or contractor that the estimated quantity as shown in the schedule will be ordered or that conditions affecting requirements will be stable or normal. Line item requirements will be fulfilled by placing orders with the contractor. The only people authorized to either issue or modify delivery orders under this ID/IQ is the Contracting Officer (CO). The FAA reserves the right to issue FFP delivery orders, as appropriate for the work as required in the Item Requirements and Specifications. The minimum obligation under this contract is $1,000.00 and will be satisfied through the issuance of the first delivery order upon award of the contract. The contractor will be issued one (1) delivery order to meet the minimum obligation. The maximum dollar value per delivery order during the contract period shall not exceed $500,000.

(a) The Government requires delivery to be made according to the following schedule:

REQUIRED DELIVERY SCHEDULE

(Contracting Officer insert specific details)

ITEM NO. QUANTITY WITHIN DAYS AFTER

DATE OF CONTRACT

0001 1 180 Days after issuance of individual Delivery Order

0002 6 180 Days after issuance of individual Delivery Order

0003 Up to 74 180 Days after issuance of individual Delivery Order

The Government will evaluate equally, as regards time of delivery, offers that propose delivery of each quantity within the applicable delivery period specified above. Offers that propose delivery that will not clearly fall within the applicable required delivery period specified above, may be rejected. The Government reserves the right to award under either the required delivery schedule or the proposed delivery schedule, when an offeror offers an earlier delivery schedule than required above. If the offeror proposes no other delivery schedule, the required delivery schedule above will apply.

OFFEROR'S PROPOSED DELIVERY SCHEDULE

ITEM NO. QUANTITY WITHIN DAYS AFTER

DATE OF CONTRACT

(b) Attention is directed to provisions of the screening information request/contract that provide that a written award or acceptance of offer mailed, or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror, results in a binding contract. The Government will mail or otherwise furnish to the offeror an award or notice of award not later than the day award is dated. Therefore, the offeror should compute the time available for performance beginning with the actual date of award, rather than the date the written notice of award is received from the Contracting Officer through the ordinary mails. However, the Government will evaluate an offer that proposes delivery based on the Contractor's date of receipt of the contract or notice of award by adding (i) five calendar days for delivery of the award through the ordinary mails, or (ii) one working day if the solicitation states that the contract or notice of award will be transmitted electronically. (The term 'working day' excludes weekends and U.S. Federal holidays.) If, as so computed, the offered delivery date is later than the required delivery date, the offer may be rejected.

The order shall be specifically identified as a stop-work order issued under this clause. Upon receipt of the order, the Contractor shall immediately comply with its terms and take all reasonable steps to minimize the incurrence of costs allocable to the work covered by the order during the period of work stoppage. Within a period of 90 days after a stop-work order is delivered to the Contractor, or within any extension of that period to which the parties shall have agreed, the Contracting Officer shall either--

(1) Cancel the stop-work order; or

(2) Terminate the work covered by the order as provided in the termination for default or the termination for convenience clause of this contract.

(b) If a stop-work order issued under this clause is canceled or the period of the order or any extension thereof expires, the Contractor shall resume work. The Contracting Officer shall make an equitable adjustment in the delivery schedule or contract price, or both, and the contract shall be modified, in writing, accordingly, if-

(1) The stop-work order results in an increase in the time required for, or in the Contractor's cost properly allocable to, the performance of any part of this contract; and

(2) The Contractor asserts its right to the adjustment within 30 days after the end of the period of work stoppage;

provided, that, if the Contracting Officer decides the facts justify the action, the Contracting Officer may receive and act upon a claim submitted at any time before final payment under this contract.

3.13-15 CONFIDENTIALITY OF DATA AND INFORMATION (NOV 2016)

(a) In performance of this contract, the contractor and any of its subcontractors, may need access to and use various data and information in the possession of the Government.This data and information may have been obtained under conditions which restrict the Government's right to use and disclose this data and information or which may be adverse to the interests of the Government or other parties if it is disseminated or used in a capacity other than in performance of this contract. Therefore, the contractor and its subcontractors agree to abide by any restrictive use conditions on such data and not to: (1) knowingly disclose such data and information to others without written authorization from the Contracting Officer, unless it is already publically available; or (2) use for any purpose other than the performance of this contract any data or information which bears a restrictive marking or legend which the contractor has gained access to through the performance of this contract, or information that should be marked according to FAA Order 1600.75 "Protecting Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI)". For the sole purpose of this clause, "information" means any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions in any medium or form, including textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative or visual form.

(b) In the event the work required to be performed under this contract requires access to proprietary data and information of other companies, the contractor must obtain agreement from such other companies for such use unless such data are provided or made available to the contractor by the Government. Two copies of such company-to-company agreements must be furnished promptly to the Contracting Officer for information only. These agreements must prescribe the scope of authorized use and disclosure of the proprietary data and information as well as any other terms and conditions to be agreed upon between the parties thereto. It is agreed by the contractor that any such data or information, whether obtained by the contractor pursuant to the aforesaid agreement or from the Government, must be protected from unauthorized use by or unauthorized disclosure to any individual, corporation, or organization so long as it remains proprietary.

(c) The contractor agrees to conduct formal training to make employees aware of the requirement to maintain confidentiality of data and information as required above. The contractor must obtain from each employee in connection with this contract a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement. This agreement must provide that the employee will not, during employment or anytime thereafter, disclose or use for current or future benefit of any party any of the data (to include any form of Sensitive Unclassified Information (SUI) described in FAA Order 1600.75) or information not publically available received in connection with the work under the contract.

(d) The contractor agrees to hold the Government harmless and indemnify the Government as to any cost/loss resulting from the unauthorized use or disclosure of third party data or software by the contractor, its employees, subcontractors, or agents.

(e) The contractor agrees to include the substance of this clause in all subcontracts awarded under this contract. The Contracting Officer will consider case-by-case exceptions to this requirement for individual subcontracts in the event that: (1) the contractor considers this clause to be inappropriate and unnecessary in the case of a particular subcontract; (2) the contractor provides a written statement affirming absolute unwillingness of a subcontractor to perform, absent some relief from the substance of this prohibition and the reason why; (3) use of an alternate subcontract source would unreasonably detract from the quality of effort; and (4) the contractor provides the Contracting Officer timely written advance notice of these and any other extenuating circumstances.

(f) Except as the Contracting Officer specifically authorizes in writing, upon completion of all work under this contract, the contractor must return all such data and information described above obtained from the Government, including all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations thereof, to the Contracting Officer. Data obtained from another company must be disposed of in accordance with the contractor's agreement with that company, or if the agreement makes no provision for disposition, must be returned to that company. The contractor must further certify in writing to the CO that all copies, modifications, adaptations, or combinations of such data or information which cannot reasonably be returned to the Contracting Officer (or to the appropriate company), have been deleted from the contractor's (and any subcontractor's) records and destroyed. The FAA reserves the right to audit the deletion. The FAA must provide notice of the audit 10 calendar days prior to the audit.

(g) These restrictions do not limit the contractor's (or subcontractor's) right to use and disclose any data and information obtained from another source without restriction.

(End of clause)

AC4540 AGREEMENT TO PARTICIPATE IN ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION (JUN 2015)

(a) The Federal Aviation Administration encourages direct communications and negotiations between the contractor and the contracting officer in an attempt to resolve contract disputes. In those situations where the parties are not able to achieve resolution at the contracting officer level, the agency favors the use of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques to resolve disputes.

(b) The parties hereby agree that, prior to referring a contract dispute to the Office of Disputes Resolution as described in contract clause 3.9.1-1 ‘Contract Disputes’, the parties will discuss whether they are willing to utilize ADR techniques such as mediation or nonbinding evaluation of the dispute by a neutral party. Upon receipt of a contract dispute from the contractor, the contracting officer will explore with the contractor whether the use of ADR techniques would be appropriate to resolve the dispute. Both parties must agree that the use of such techniques is appropriate, and agree to fairly share the associated expenses. If the parties do not mutually agree to utilize ADR to resolve the dispute, the dispute will be processed in accordance with the procedures set forth in clause 3.9.1-1.

AC4555 NOTICE OF CONTRACTOR TESTIMONY (SEP 2006)

(a) The contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer promptly in writing of its intention, or the intention of its employees, subcontractors of any tier, or subcontractor employees, either voluntarily or under compulsion of competent authority, to provide sworn testimony on any matter related to or arising under the work required by and/or performed under, this contract. Such written notification at a minimum shall consist of the date and time of the testimony, identification of the court, board, or other body before which the testimony is made, the nature of the testimony to be given to the extent it is known at the time of this report, the nature of the contractor’s involvement in the proceeding and any other circumstances related to the work performed under or related to the contract and the proceeding in which the testimony will be taken.

(b) The contractor shall include the substance of this clause, including this paragraph (b), in all subcontracts executed under this contract and shall require all subcontractors to provide the required report to the contractor.

AC4557 STRIKES OR PICKETING

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Contractor is responsible for delays arising out of labor disputes, including but not limited to strikes, if such strikes are reasonably avoidable. A delay caused by a strike or by picketing which constitutes an unfair labor practice is not excusable unless the Contractor takes all reasonable and appropriate action to end such a strike or picketing, such as the filing of a charge with the National Labor Relations Board, the use of other available Government procedures, and the use of private boards or organizations for the settlement of disputes.

(a) Definitions. As used in this clause

"Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number" means the 9-digit number assigned by Dun and Bradstreet, Inc. (D&B) to identify unique business entities.

"Data Universal Numbering System +4 (DUNS+4) number" means the DUNS number assigned by D&B plus a 4-character suffix that may be assigned by a business concern. (D&B has no affiliation with this 4-character suffix.)

This 4-character suffix may be assigned at the discretion of the business concern to establish additional SAM records for identifying alternative Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) accounts for the same parent concern.

"Registered in the SAM database" means that the Contractor has entered all mandatory information, including the DUNS number or the DUNS+4 number, into the SAM database.

"System for Award Management (SAM) Database" means the primary Government repository for Contractor information required for the conduct of business with the Government.

(b)(1) By submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges the requirement that a prospective awardee shall be registered in the SAM database prior to award, during performance, and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement resulting from this solicitation.

(2) The offeror shall enter, in Representations, Certifications and Other Statements of Offerors Section of the solicitation, the DUNS or DUNS +4 number that identifies the offeror's name and address exactly as stated in the offer. The DUNS number will be used by the Contracting Officer to verify that the offeror is registered in the SAM database.

(c) If the offeror does not have a DUNS number, it should contact Dun and Bradstreet directly to obtain one.

(1) An offeror may obtain a DUNS number

(i) If located within the United States, by calling Dun and Bradstreet at 1-866-705-5711 or via the Internet at http://fedgov.dnb.com/webform; or

(ii) If located outside the United States, by contacting the local Dun and Bradstreet office.

(2) The offeror should be prepared to provide the following information:

(i) Company legal business.

(ii) Tradestyle, doing business, or other name by which your entity is commonly recognized.

(iii) Company Physical Street Address, City, State, and ZIP Code.

(iv) Company Mailing Address, City, State and ZIP Code (if different from physical street address).

(v) Company Telephone Number.

(vi) Date the company was started.

(vii) Number of employees at your location.

(viii) Chief executive officer/key manager.

(ix) Line of business (industry).

(x) Company Headquarters name and address (reporting relationship within your entity).

(d) If the offeror does not become registered in the SAM database in the time prescribed by the Contracting Officer, the Contracting Officer may proceed to award to the next otherwise successful registered offeror.

(e) Processing time, which normally takes 48 hours, should be taken into consideration when registering. Offerors who are not registered should consider applying for registration immediately upon receipt of this solicitation.

(f) The Contractor is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data within the SAM database, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in the SAM database after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates its information in the SAM database to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in the SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document. If registered in SAM as a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), by submission of an offer, the offeror acknowledges that they are designated as a SDVOSB by the Department of Veterans Affairs, and this designation appears as such on the Veteran Affairs website, https://www.vip.vetbiz.gov.

Guidance, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to:

(A) change the name in the SAM database;

(B) comply with the requirements of AMS regarding novation and change-of-name agreements; and

(C) agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor must provide the Contracting Officer with the notification, sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.

(ii) If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (g)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (g)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of Payment" paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.

(2) The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in the SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims. Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM database. Information provided to the Contractor's SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the "Suspension of payment" paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.

(h) Offerors and Contractors may obtain information on registration and annual confirmation requirements via the internet at http://www.sam.gov.
